Has anyone created their own magical system?
I like the idea of planetary hours, but the planets don't really mean anything to me, so I was thinking of compiling a similar cycle and substituting in things that do mean things to me - animals, maybe colors, I don't know.
Maybe come up with my own cosmology instead of the goetic demons too

Spent years of high school and college working on one.
I didn't much care for the fact that the four elements hot/cold wet/dry wheel doesn't match up to the compass alignments. Seemed idiotic to me that water would touch fire. Also was fiddling around with a "magical language" linking sounds to specific elements, and words that held meanings by what sounds/elements comprised them. Never got far though.
Was all for a fantasy world anyway.

That's because the compass alignments you're thinking of (north=earth, south=fire, east=air, west=water) are based on astrology, and not the physical properties of the four elements.
Basically you're mistaking the map and the territory here.

You should look into British traditional witchcraft, then. In Cornish craft, fire and water are east and west, and air and earth are north and south.

Music sounds like a good spot, maybe including pitches or keys, genres, or instruments in a correspondence table.

Astrology is such bullshit.

That's more or less how I had it set up.

I asked in a dream once what element I was attuned with. I was like 'air or fire right?'. The spirit replied that it was water, but water and fire are the same thing when neither have yet to manifest. All the elements are just a different expression of the same energy.
